" The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated "
Mohandas Gandhi

Portuguese activists need your help!

As a Portuguese activist i could not fail to ask here for your special help to sign the petitions cited below.Although Portugal belong to the European Union, my Country is going through a series of political and socio-economic problems that have nothing favored treatment towards animals.If before the animals were not respected, much less now. Cases of animal abuse by their owners are left open by a system that does not work and does not fulfill its obligations. The fulfillment of duties in public kennels, veterinary municipal, police and municipal regions is virtually nil this depending on the good faith and will of the persons occupying these positions. Without supervision, activists are struggling against a law which still considers animals as mere objects and worse, with a system that does not even fulfills the law and where justice does not work.By present events are many the people who are afraid to exercise their rights, manifesting, fearing future reprisals.For this reason and because few are giving voice to animal fighting in Portugal, we need to cross borders and this is where your help is very precious.Actually those who fight for the animal cause do it anywhere, where animals are in need.So I ask you all to sign and share these petitions:
